What does the chort for of ctc stand for? (Hint: C___ t_ C___)

I’m guessing this is asking for the chat short form ‘ctc’ but it makes no sense as is.

I don’t know whether I’m supposed to answer trivial or not in this thread, but from my experience with instant messenger, etc. “ctc” means ‘Call The Cell", but I don’t know if “The” fits in the spaces you have for “t_”.

Edit: Hot_Rod: This isn’t the right thread to ask that. It’s not a bug because the question has an answer. You should have put it under the trivial thread instead (too late now seeing as I answered it, but just for future reference).

Aether, well, mono-aether has a decent chance of beating most FGs. You underestimate the deck. Fractal and Dim Shield are just two aspects.
Phase Dragons can also be deadly when they can really only be destroyed by two cards, both shields, and phase spiders can be spammed with Quints and Parallel universes for some serious damage. Every deck has some kind of inspirational aspect, so don’t say it’s bad.

Topic: Elements / Un/little Upgraded lvl 4,5,6 decks

Firstly, not to rack on SGs deck, but there are better variants. Her deck is a basic format. My FG grinding deck starts with pretty much the same cards, only some modifications, such as more pillars and some other shields, and I’m barely upgraded.

And the sundial bug disadvantage is misread. They nerfed the card to do less, although I’m not quite sure what it had before, the deck definitely takes that into account, so don’t even think about that. Also, FG rainbows are really not used for PvP, but solely for L5s and FGs and sometimes T50. I, personally, usually have a success rate of 90% or higher against all L5s, and that’s an average of 80 coin per match (which is based on an elemental mastery being achieved), so you can have a new card upgraded in about 20 games or less. Also, pay attention to the oracle. If you’re versing Fire Queen or Paradox, or one of the easy gods, and he tells you, go and face them. If you win, you’ll have a huge chance to get an upped card, preferably something good, and you’ll make 120 coin.

I don’t, however, advise jumping into L6s and just trying to beat them, not with an entirely upped deck, or a strategically planned deck filled with rares, because there are about 10 FGs that will smack you down almost instantly with SGs deck.

Edit: remember not to upgrade your sundial, because it becomes useless. The trade-off for the upgrade is terrible, costing nothing to cast, but 2 light to draw, which you won’t have at the start of a game when an FG decides to spam dragons.

I don’t get Maxwell’s Demon, and how do you prevent deck-outs if you have a Pulverizer, or Owl’s Eye, or Lobotomizer?

Does anyone know any good FG rainbow decks?

Easy to attain? I have an FG rainbow that works enough to get you the hard badge, however it’s not great for random battles. It’s mostly unupgraded, and some of the upgrades are unnecessary. Puppychow’s FG rainbow is entirely upgraded, and requires shards, which are hard to attain unless you’ve beaten FGs, and by judging your deck, you haven’t. Here’s mine. It’s a variant of SGs deck, only, it works better for me.

16 Quantum Pillars
2 Empathic Bonds
1 Dissipation Shield
2 Dimensional Shields
1 Eternity
6 Sundials (never upgrade these)
4 Electrum Hourglasses (these are Golden Hourglasses upgraded, which is totally necessary, because the cost difference can mean drawing a new card, or wasting a turn collecting quanta)
2 Enchant Artifacts (generally one for an electrum hourglass if your opponent is a klepto, or likes destroying, and one for eternity, because it’s necessary to prevent deck outs)
1 Rain of Fire
1 Bone Wall
1 Bone Yard
1 Steal
2 Deflagrations (you can swap these for steals, but if you wanna get rid of an opponent’s shield, and you already have one of yours up, you don’t really want to steal it, do you?)
2 Quintessences (for 2 of the 4 mobs, considering 2 will always be necessary to win, although avoid doing it to both Otys, or else you may lose all of your offense, especially when trying to cut down a gravity opponent’s Armagios)
1 FFQ (Firefly Queen)
2 Otyughs (Try and get these guys upgraded, or at least one, because it can make a big difference)
1 Fallen Druid (This guy is upgraded, and is your entire attack force in correlation with FFQ and her flies and your Bone Yard and skeletons, unless you like dragging out matches once you have everything all set up).

And your mark is time

46 cards total. It might seem like much, but it’ll beat every L5, provided you don’t draw poorly.

I haven’t tested this success rate in trainer, I’m fairly patient and only play FGs when I have lots of money or am really confident (thanks to Oracle). This deck can get you wins against many of the easy FGs, but beyond the 9 upgrades I currently have in it (not all of them are necessary to win, and 2 of them were won) I haven’t tested it in random runs against FGs because it isn’t meant for farming at this stage.

True that banking doesn’t matter anymore as far as them leaving you alone, but it does still help you not lose money when you’re attacked.

I’m at the point where I have so much cash, banking actually costs me more than if I just let people attack me. 10% of 120M, Which is 12M, or 100k for 4 attacks every 8 – 10 hours or so.

2 Consecutive spins, won an upgraded FFQ and a Feral Bond, and threw them both in my deck. Thank you Fire Queen.

I have 2 Dim shields in my deck, does that make me a noob? No, it makes me efficient.

Why are you worried about the limitation of Dimensional Shields IF YOU ONLY HAVE 2? Did you read the post before yours?

You can’t just limit the amount of a specific card allowed in your deck. Change one rule, change all of the rules. You’re asking for a total nerf on dimensional shield otherwise. That wouldn’t be a good choice.

Topic: Elements / Version 1.21 to be out soon!!

@ gravity21:
Wow. There’s this thing called punctuation, and grammar, and line breaks that would make your comment more readable. From skimming, I can tell that you read the original text wrong. Eternity’s cost increases by 1, making it cost 6 to summon, or 5 when upgraded. It doesn’t say anywhere that the effect of eternity will cost more.

Also, I was testing phoenix in the trainer. It dies pretty fast, and Oty’s eat it on the first turn. Also, you’re only one hit from a firelance if your opponent has over 300 fire quanta, and if they’ve collected that much, you’re taking too long to win. Also, you complain about Eternity, so I assume that you use a rainbow deck, but now you’re complaining about phoenix, a card with 7/1.

Rainbow decks (well, the good ones) use Otyughs to keep your opponent’s field clear, so your second problem is solved. Also, when phoenix becomes ash, it takes 2 turns before you can bring it back (on the second turn), and even so, if your Oty devours phoenix, it doesn’t turn to ash.

Also, to disclaim your rant, of course a game is unbalanced. You know how difficult it is to perfect and totally balance any kind of card game? The truly skilled players can deal with the overpoweredness (is that even a word?) and still come out for the win. I’ve won so many games where my comeback came with 10 or less HP. So please, make a formal complaint, or make some kind of constructive criticism, not an angry rant over a new version of the game when you haven’t even really considered what you’re talking about.

Sorry, that was a rant in itself.

The Earth element, in my opinion, is far to weak. I mean come on, IT’S EARTH, the element that made everything on earth. I think Earth should also have a card that is quite the same as Thunderstorm, because anything that is not flying Earth could destroy Tbh. So, unless the Creature is a flying type Earth cont touch them. The Card should be called GROUND FORCE and attackes all creatures, except the flying types, and does 4 damage to each one.

Wrong forum. You want the CCG topic that discusses new card suggestions. This is a discussion of Assassim’s cards.

If there are going to be so many changes to the effects of cards, why not go ahead and limit the use of those dimension shields.

How about dimensional shields stay the same so I can actually beat false gods when I play. Or maybe people should deal with it and learn how to get rid of them (deflag, steal or destroy, that’s at least 3 elements that can destroy permanents)

Topic: Elements / Assassim's Card Ideas

Wouldn’t it just be easier to give it to them instantly?

Topic: Elements / Assassim's Card Ideas

How about, instead of giving slimelord 7/7, give it 7/3, and instead of giving it both devour and some type of spawn, give it one, or the other, or make it transform an enemy monster into a slime that powers up slime lord by 0/1, and it can only transform mobs with less HP (for 1 water, like devour), so trying to destroy enemy mobs lowers the strength of your slimelord, provided your slime has a balanced damage/health ratio, like 2/2, so it’s still deadly, or 2/3 so it becomes hard to get rid of if your slime lord gets trashed.

Topic: Elements / Ideas for Elements CCG (Destructive criticism will be ignored)

How about a neutral dragon, one that you can summon with any quanta, like a basic dragon. Maybe 10 quanta, 8/8 or 7/7 because it’d be easier to summon than most dragons, and it wouldn’t have any abilities. Upgrading it would make it cost 9 quanta and make it probably 9/9
